Think my PM account may have gone a bit screwy!

Fair bit of activity and messages piling up in Outbox for some reason.

Anyway thanks to everyone who has dropped me a note: if my replies don't leave limbo please assume everything ok!

All you need to enter on line is

1. Entry form
2. Money
3. Print off your own route sheet

See you Sat

I will be definitely doing this ride

so anyone is welcome to join me at the sq to ride to Stamfoird Bridge. I was thinking of getting to the sq for about 0730 to arrive comfortably in time at Stamford Bridge. What is it about 40 min ride?

Pete T the route has changed from that you've posted, Mark's route goes through Hook near Goole and under the M62 bridge - which is much nicer and more interesting than going through Goole. Importantly at the moment Saturday's route avoids Elvington bridge - which is shut quite a bit of the time even to cyclists, during bridge repair works. You might arrive there only to not be able to get through, I have.

Just to let people who intend to be at the sq., after posting my intial time of 0730 Pete K sent me a PM saying that most people would be setting off around 0800ish so even though I'll be there I wont be hurrying to be off. Pete says it only around 25 min to Stamford Bridge

Yeah maybe at an Av Sp. of 25mph
